It was the end of another day of school and Nami quickly ran down the hall and out to her bicycle. Wearing her white shirt, pink skirt, baggy white socks, and her pink and white sneakers, Nami's pink curly pigtails bounced up and down in stride. She jumped on and quickly rode through town and back home. Throwing open the door, Nami went to her room and closed the door.
Inside, the pink kitten she had found yesterday still slept on her bed. Nami picked up the kitty and went through the house to the backyard.
"Hello kitty." Nami said, "Time to stretch and play outside."
But instead, the kitty sat nearby and looked up at her. Instead, to Nami's surprise, the cat sparkled with pink energy and grew a pair of small wings.
"W-what's going on?!" Nami said.
The bright pink light faded with a flash and Nami covered her eyes. When she looked again, everything seemed normal. The pink kitty had no wings and the light was clear. Instead, a small bag with a sash had appeared. The bag was clear with a bow and had what appeared to be small blue berries inside.
"Huh?" Nami said, picking up the bag, "What's this?" She put the sash up and over her head, letting it fit snuggly on her waist. "It's a pretty bag. Did you make this?"
She looked at the kitty but it didn't say anything, just stared up at her.
"Hmm, I wonder if these are blueberries?" Nami asked out loud, opening the bag. She took out two berries and looked them over carefully. They looked ok to eat. So she did.
Nami popped both berries into her mouth at once, chewed, and swallowed them. She paused for a moment. They didn't taste like blueberries. They didn't really taste anything at all. But she did feel some kind of a sensation running throughout her body.
All of a sudden, Nami's body flashed pink briefly and she began to increase in size. It was slow at first, only a few feet tall. Then she began to grow much more rapidly. From the backyard, Nami rose higher into the sky. She could see over the roof of her own house. As she passed 20 feet tall, Nami stepped over the dividing fence, past the house and out in front of the house. She continued growing taller.
"Oh my, what's going on?!" she said, "Will I ever stop?!"
Nami's feet sank into the front lawn as she walked, leaving footprints in the grass. She stepped onto the street, growing taller and taller. Finally, as Nami reached almost 100 feet tall, the pink light faded away and Nami's growth stopped.
Nami looked around with concern. At the height of a 10 story building, everything around looked very small. Nami's gaze turned to the bag tied around her waist that had grow along with her.
"Just what kind of berries are these?" Nami said out loud, "I'm so big now? Is this permanent? How am I suppose to get into my bedroom now?"
But as Nami looked around, she started to feel much more excited. The kitty in the backyard still sat there, looking up. But Nami had almost forgotten completely about the kitty.
"I'm a giant now!" Nami said, starting to feel much more happy, "Taller then anyone else on the planet! I'm like a giant monster! Just like all those movies!" She looked around the neighborhood, down at all the houses.
Nami lifted a foot and stepped forward. With a loud BOOM her sneaker struck the street and shattered the pavement. She stepped again, and again, and again. Nami walked down the street, laughing at herself. The view was amazing. The feeling was exhilarating! She was loving this! She could do whatever she wanted.
People quickly realized what had happened. Most simply stared up in disbelief as Nami stomped past. Others screamed and ran away. Others more dashed back inside and tried to hide.
Nami spotted some cars parked alongside the road. Bending her knees, Nami squatted down and picked up two of the cars, one in each hand. They were weightless to her now, like toys.
"Heehee, they are so light." Nami said as she lightly lifted the cars like dumbbells. "In fact, I wonder how well they would stand up to me if I . . . "
Nami placed both cars down in front of her, side by side, and lifted herself back up to full height. She brought up her left foot and moved it up and over the car on the left. As the sole of her sneaker touched the roof of the car, it creaked and groaned in protest. Nami rubbed her foot back and forth a moment, dragging it over the car's roof. Then, placing her foot firmly on the car, Nami lifted herself up and pressed.
The car, which was only half the length of Nami's sneaker, crunched loudly and disappeared from sight as Nami stepped on it. The pavement shattered and cracked apart as Nami stepped firmly. The other car bounced from the impact for just a moment before Nami brought up her right foot and stepped on the other car as well. Once again, she heard the delightful crunch of the metal, felt it flatten through the sole of her sneaker.
Nami bounced up and down, letting her weight come down heavily on top of both cars. She took a step back to admire her handiwork . . . . or in this case, her footwork.
"Haha! I totally crushed them!" Nami exclaimed proudly. She noted that both cars had been pressed absolutely flat and lay inside her large footprints. Not a single bit of the cars stood any higher then a few inches. She had reduced both cars to metal pancakes.
"Oh boy, this is gonna be fun!" Nami said, clapping her hands. Ahead of her, the entire city was laid out. Leaving the two crushed cars, Nami stomped down the street. She walked down her own street and turned onto a larger and busier main road. As she did, Nami began causing a much bigger disturbance as well.
This street has much more traffic on it. Cars, truck, and buses drove in both directions. Nami towered over the street, her sneakers blocking the lanes of traffic. As they approached, most cars skidded to a stop, their drivers staring up in awe. Some vehicles sped around the jam and rushed between Nami's feet, eager to get past in a hurry.
Nami admired the city not far away. Her attention shifted as she heard the honking of horns below. She noticed the jam of traffic forming around her. A smile spread across her face. A car rushed past beneath her and Nami quickly gave chase. Realizing just how fast she was at this size, Nami slowed to a walk, but even then, she easily overtook the speeding car.
The car was barely ahead of Nami until finally she was upon it. Her foot came up and over the racing car, came down, and she stepped on the car. Once again, she heard the crunch as she crushed the car. Nami twisted her foot back and forth, watching the road get torn up around her foot.
Traffic had long since begun bunching up in a jam of vehicles. All around Nami, the road was covered in a colorful mass of stuck cars, trucks, and buses. Nami had not yet come to fully realize that, unlike the parked cars from before, people were inside the moving vehicles. As Nami finished grinding out the car, she continued to walk down the busy street. As she did, all manner of vehicles were crushed, squashed, and flattened beneath her sneakers.
Seeing Nami approach, occupants of vehicles quickly abandoned their cars and began running down the street on foot in a mass panic. But they were even slower then cars and Nami overtook them just as quickly.
"Get out of the way!" Nami shouted loudly, "Get out of my way or I'll squish ya!" She lifted her arms and bared her hands like a monster. "Rawr rawr!"
Both cars and running people disappeared underfoot now. A large box truck, one with a large emblem of a strawberry on the side, took a partial hit from Nami's right foot. The cab, with the driver inside, and part of the box cargo area were flattened. The back doors sprang open and squashed strawberries sprayed everywhere.
It didn't take long for Nami to reach the city. But as she did, the height of many of the taller buildings disappointed her. Some were twice her own size.
"I'm not tall enough for this it seems." Nami said, "But that can be quickly fixed." She opened her bag again, took out two more berries, and ate them quickly. Once again, she felt that same sensation rush throughout her body, and she grew again. This time, she topped out at over 200 feet, taller then a twenty story building, and much more on par with the buildings in town.
"Not big enough!" Nami said, "I don't want to be as tall as the buildings. Must be bigger!" She ate two more berries and shot up to 300 feet tall, a whole 50 feet taller then the tallest building in town.
With bigger size came bigger destruction. Nami's footsteps caused minor earthquakes as small buildings collapsed just from her walking nearby. Her sneakers were as big as semi trucks and squashed dozens of cars at a time. Nami slammed her fists into buildings, knocking down walls and shattering windows. She tore buildings apart with her hands until she could raise her feet high enough to stomp on the remains.
There was so much debris from destroyed buildings that the streets were buried. the city was quickly becoming a sea of rubble. Nami gripped a building, wrapped her arms around it, and gave it a huge shove. The building groaned, broke off at its base, and toppled over as Nami pushed with all her might. It crashed to the ground and shattered on impact, throwing up a cloud of debris. Nami stood tall, victorious in her battle against these concrete towers.
In less then 2 hours, there was very little left of the entire city. Nami razed it all to the ground. Nami looked around at the ruins of the city. Very little moved. The air was filled with the smoke of hundreds of fires. Nami's footsteps crunched on the rubble as she paced back and forth.
"The city is completely destroyed." Nami said quietly aloud, "But what am I suppose to do now? Do I really stay gigantic forever? Maybe I should destroy another city."
As Nami pondered what to do next, the smoke got thicker and thicker. It rose, covering the sky in blackness. All around her, the air got darker.
Nami coughed. "Why is the smoke getting all the way up here? It's so dark. What's going on?" She stepped back, stumbling on the crumbling debris. Losing her balance, Nami toppled over.
"Whoaaaaaa!" Nami screamed.
-----------
With a clunk, Nami hit the floor of her bedroom and sprawled out on the floor. Her eyes snapped over wide and she thrashed around and jumped up. Looking around, Nami gasped as she realized she was back in her bedroom.
"W-what? My bedroom?" Nami said, confused, "But, I was huge. A giantess! I destroyed the entire city!" She looked around, still in a daze. "Was it really all a dream? Awwwww, but I was having so much fun!"
Nami looked at the clock. It was 11pm. She'd only been asleep for a few hours and she had school again in the morning.
"Dang it!" Nami said, "It felt so real. I'd better write that all down so I never forget that dream."
And so, after writing down all the details of her dream, Nami climbed back into bed and did her best to fall asleep. But her mind kept drifting back to that feeling. that sensation of growing. Maybe someday, she'd be able to do it for real!
THE END.
